Although there was a long line, my food was ready in no more than 10 minutes. Food was delicious, I'd definitely go again

I would love to have given it a 5 star review but the cashier Fernanda had a STANK attitude. She was looking me and my mom up and down and talking crap with her coworker. Unnecessarily rude!!! I hope she's fired. How do you work customer service and dont know how to treat folks??? Unbelievable. read more

We visited Tacos Frontera and were not disappointed (actually four times now)!! My San Diego born and bred husband said it was old school SoCa flavor all the way down to the beans & weenies (reminded him of his Mexican grandma). Shared a fish taco - amazing... The queso birria tacos and consomme were phenomenal (my personal favorite) and hubby had the carne asada burrito - not fajita, actual carne asada and a muleta. It was all fantastic. We shared a cup of elote and the chicharrones were also fantastic. Definitely TJ style and reminded us of Tacos del Gordo.. those from San Diego will know what I mean!! Out of the table salsas, the jalapeño was perfection! ALSO.. the tortillas are FIRE. Tastes like fresh Old Town tortillas. We definitely over ordered, but totally worth it, their portions aren't skimpy. This will be our go-to taco shop for sure. Highly recommended!! Go here, you will NOT be disappointed!! read more

I came to Taco Frontera with high expectations because of all the hype on social media. The long line when we arrived made it seem promising. However, the food didn't quite live up to it. The meat in the tacos was a bit dry, and overall the flavors felt underwhelming. We tried four tacos and a burrito, and while everything was decent, nothing really stood out. At this price point--much higher than typical street tacos--I was hoping for something more memorable. I've honestly had better tacos from local street vendors. It's not bad, just not something I'd go out of my way to return for. read more

I've passed this place countless times and assumed it was mediocre Mexican food since it is in a prime location. A coworker recommended it, so we decided to give it a shot and were very impressed. At 5 pm on a Saturday, the line was extensive, and the wait for food after ordering is 15-20 minutes. When we stepped inside, we were immediately reminded of Tacos Numero 1 in NYC--come to find out, the owner of Tacos Frontera is brothers with the owner in NYC! Very good news, indeed. I tried a mulita with asada, which was kind of like a corn tortilla sandwich. The cheese was melty and caramelized, the beef had a delicious smokiness, and the portion was substantial. My boyfriend tried the torta with chicken and couldn't even finish it. He loved it! We also ordered a nopal taco (thinking the mulita wouldn't be enough for)--it was good, but definitely not the best item. The Jamaica was fresh and perfectly sweetened. Tell your loved ones to come here--they won't be disappointed! read more

This place has been on my list for the longest time and finally had the opportunity to try it yesterday! A big group of us came after a soccer tournament on a Saturday. I opted for tacos, I got a variety- chorizo & asada. They come with onions, cilantro, and guacamole on it. They have a variety of sauces which I use the green sauce. was very flavorful and not super spicy. The flavors of the tacos were soooo good & the toppings are fresh. I also tried some elote which was definitely one of my favorite elotes I've had in a while. Me and my friend tried a michelada with modelo. It wasn't my favorite michelada but it was refreshing at least. Overall very much enjoyed my experience here. The food didn't take long to come out and they bring it out to you on the patio. read more

I have written before about this thing that I called the Houston Culinary Honeymoon. Where a new restaurant opens and the line is around the corner for the first few months and then suddenly it is empty. This place doesn't need to worry about that. It is great. I had been hearing about this place for several months now and that the crowds to eat here were crazy. With the opening of their second location right along. Katy Freeway, I knew it was time to get it a try. I got here right when they opened. Such an impressive menu with so many choices. I opted for guacamole, esquites and a Vampiro. ALL DELICIOUS. This is the real deal. I immediately thought of a favorite place in Mexico City called Maizajo. Normally, I would complain about loud music in a place but today, with the conjuntos blasting away at full volume, it put a big smile on my face, and in a few minutes, I was no longer in Houston, but somewhere along the border. And all of these wonderful memories of trips to. Nuevo Laredo in my college years started coming back. They have a big crew in the kitchen and based on my experience today, they're turning out really good things, and I am already looking forward to my next visit here, along with visiting their original location on Highway 6. read more

The food here is fantastic! You can tell the tortillas are made from scratch--it completely elevates the flavor of the tacos. The meat is perfectly seasoned, and the fresh avocado is the perfect finishing touch. I also highly recommend the burrito; it's delicious, massive, and they definitely don't skimp on the fillings. Even with a line to order, the service was efficient and moved quickly, and the staff was very friendly. We also appreciated the variety of great hot sauces. Since we live quite a distance away, we made sure to grab a few extra items to go so we could enjoy them later. This place is definitely worth the trip! read more

Already looking forward to the next time I go. 2 Asada Tacos - $7.80 2 Pollo Tacos - $7.80 Guacamole w/ Chips - $4.95 Mexican Bottle Soda - $3.90 Quesabirria w/ Consome (4 tacos) - $13.95 read more

Went here a month or so ago on a Friday night? I kinda forgot what day it was. Pretty tasty tacos! Got a couple of beefs and chicken! Line is packed as hell. But they have great logistics to keep the line moving and getting people their food! The meats well marinated. I usually never get corn tortillas but I got it here. They did not taste very corny. Usually corn tortillas smell weird but here. Delicous! We will be back! read more

Tacos Frontera - Tacos - Tacos Near Me - Katy, Texas

The Mexican scene in that Katy area and growing steadily over last few years, and places like Tacos Frontera gave the scene a jolt by showcasing frontera cuisine, which shockingly hasn't found much of a presence in a Mexican heavy place like Houston. As a result, Tacos Frontera has become a bonafide destination and met with no shortage of hype. And the craziest part? It's probably deserving of it. The weekend (Sunday) ambiance is absolutely fire. It's hard not to be charmed by the energetic ambiance, the smiling staff, families left and right enjoying their meals, and the blasting of norteño music left and right. The chaos is a reflection of their popularity and the vibe is downright contagious. I love that they randomly provide free chicharron out to folks, whether they're waiting for takeout or guests who are already sitting. It reminds me I will let barbecue joints would give out beer the people waiting in line. Absolutely brilliant. The prices are most definitely on the higher end. Tacos are in the 3-4 range and the markup for other items is across the board. Bring cash because there is a $3 surcharge for credit cards. For me, it all starts with their adobada. The earthy, tangy, and slightly spicy flavors are excellent. A lot of people may confuse it with anothér marinated meat in al pastor, but while visually similar, the preparation methods are different. Currently they are one of the only places to offer it. The taco smell is wonderful. The aromas is what I expect in a proper taqueria. read more

Even though it's always insanely crowded (for obvious reasons), the line moves fast and the food comes out fresh and delicious!

Some of the freshest tastiest tacos you can get. Authentic and delicious! I ordered the chicken taco which comes in a soft and smoky fresh made corn tortilla. The taco is filled with juicy chicken thigh meat smothered with creamy guac, onions cilantro and served with radish slices, cucumber and lime on the side. Hit the spot after a couple hours playing pickleball. Yum yum yum, delicioso! The staff is friendly- order at the counter, take a seat and they bring out the order when it's ready. read more

The food here was honestly really good flavorful and exactly what you'd expect from a well-known taco spot. No complaints at all on that side. Unfortunately, the service didn't match. I understand places get busy, but what really bothered me was how inconsistent things were. Staff were walking around offering complimentary chicharrones to certain tables (and even giving refills), while completely skipping others including mine. I sat there watching this happen until I finally had to ask, and only then was I told they were for everyone. If that's the case, why not offer them to everyone equally? It felt selective and honestly a bit uncomfortable, like we were being overlooked for no reason. As a paying customer, you expect the same experience as everyone else. Great food, but the service left a bad impression. Sadly, I won't be back. read more

I've had takeout from here a few times, and it was always so good. Finally had the chance to dine in, and it was superb! It wasn't too busy when we went. I've heard there's usually a really long line... I get it though, it's because it's one of the best taco spots! Love how they provide complimentary chicharrones - so crispy. They pair amazingly well with the green sauce. The young lady at the front was super sweet. I mean service here in general is top notch. As they called out our order, we were about to walk up to grab it but a worker quickly came to our table and brought it to us. We got the al pastor and bistec tacos. Al pastor is a bit on the saltier side. Highly recommend bistec though!! They know how to LOAD the tacos upppp. I've never ever seen a place add that much guac. Everything is so fresh. Everything is delicious. The lime agua Fresca and horchata were refreshing. My fav place! read more

Mannnnnn. This place STAYS having a line so we had to wait awhile to give it a try. On a Wednesday, almost every seat is still taken, that's how you KNOW. Chicken flavor is great and is so moist - not dry AT ALL. The steak was fantastic as well. BUT, lemme tell you the SURPRISE I had when GUAC came on my tacos. 10/10 made my day. ‍ The beef burrito was massive and fantastic as well! The prices are spot on for the amount and quality of food you are getting. They have 3 different home made salsas for you to try, each great in their own way. The horchata was fantastic as well. We'll definitely be back to try our other favorites as they have a wide variety of foods. I also love how they have emerced you and not Americanized it. 10/10 recommend read more

I finally got to try out this place last Saturday, and my goodness im sad I didn't try it before! I had, had it on my list of places to visit but at the time the only location was at hwy 6, so waited until this location opened up and also slowed down. To my surprise and delight it seems this place is always busy so I couldnt wait any longer. We picked a Saturday around 6 so I expected it to be busy and it most definitely was, there was no seating but no a long line which was great and the wait for food wasn't to bad. We ended up getting it to go. Since there was alot of people waiting for food there was someone coming around with complimentary chicharones courtesy of the house which was very nice and not expected. They were delicious really good with their green sauce. Now for what we came for the food: Even with bring it home our food was nice and hot! And my goodness was it amazingly good. I had the quesabirra plate and a horchata(pictured). It came with 4 fully packed with meat and cheese in each taco!! The pickled red onions were actually unexpectedly really good with them(was sad I didnt get enough for all four tacos tho). The horchata was spotted on (im picky about it not being grainy, and this was definitely not grainy). I was absolutely stuffed almost couldn't finish it. My bf had 2 tacos asados and 2 pollo he said the same thing they were delicious and very filling. He also got some charro beans(that unfortunately I ended up eating the next day because he didnt like it had hotdogs in it) but in my opinion they were spot on as well. Im definitely excited to go back and try more of the menu because it was delicious (been thinking of it ever since Saturday itching to go again) I see what the hype was about, only downside is not the best location to get in and out quickly or find parking but with food like that I will fight for a spot just to eat there again. read more

My fave taco spot so far! The 3 different sauce options are all good. I had the steak, pork and cactus tacos and all were good. I also ordered the Elote and Birria tacos but I can do without them. I was just never a fan of birria tacos. They also give out free chicharrons! Service is always good even though they get busy. Their portions are decent as well. I brought 3 people here on separate days and they all loved it. I will recommend this place to everyone as it is a must try. read more

Salsa, onions, cilantro y guacamole the fearless army assembled on a corn tortilla, marching straight from Tijuana. Their general: Asada. Not fajita, but charred like a warrior returning from battle, smoky and bold. The taco fought valiantly, but it didn't make me leap from my chair shouting "¡Viva Houston's best tacos!" The guacamole betrayed the cause, hiding all on one side like a cowardly deserter. Still, everything else blended together like loyal comrades in the field. Then came the Mulitas Asada lla heroína de la frontera! Two fried corn tortillas locking in melted cheese, onions, cilantro, salsa y guacamole a tostada with armor, a taste that made the taste buds rise in salute. I removed the top tortilla, and the cheese underneath Ay, madre mía! That was the victory cry of Tijuana flavor itself. But beware, mis soldados Not all warriors fight with honor. ¡Nunca compren la Salchicha (Sausage)! A traitor to the revolution tasteless, tragic, unworthy of the battlefield. The Tijuana-style tacos fought bravely. The mulita claimed the glory. The salchicha? Shot at dawn. This story was inspired by Fajitas being replaced by Asada so a new revolution. read more

I'm so grateful we have a Katy location for this spot! The place is clean, the service is friendly, and the food is absolutely OUTSTANDING. For the price, you won't find better quality, generous portions, or free refills on agua frescas. I highly recommend it. My only complaint? They're closed on Mondays--but hey, we accept Sundays for CFA! Here's how I'd rate what I've tried so far: * Fajita taco: 5/5 * Fajita torta: 5/5 * Fajita burrito: 5/5 * Charro beans: 3/5 (Good, but I prefer thicker broths with more complex flavors and a mix of meats--this one leaned weenie-heavy.) * Limon agua fresca: 2/5 (I expected more sour punch; it feels more natural, but I might be too used to the powdered kind.) * Jicama drink: 4/5 (Stronger flavor than the limon--solid choice.) read more

Came around 3:30pm on a Saturday and the line was to the door. It took about 20mins before I was able to order and then another 10mins for the food to come out. The mulitas was so good. I loved the melted cheese they had in it. I also had the tacos and I loved how they loaded it up with guacamole. I believe the vampiros is the same thing but instead of a soft tortilla they use a crispy taco shell. My husband had the asada quesadillas and it was huge. The green sauce is the bomb. read more
